ObamaNation: Rating Colleges Based on Immorality

Now that over two-thirds of all college students receive a total of $150 billion annually from the federal government, averaging over $10,000 per student per year, the stage is set for a totalitarian-minded U.S. president to dictate all public AND PRIVATE "higher education" curricula via a national rating system that will control which college's students are allowed to draw from the federal spigot.

Mr. Obama is directing Education Secretary Arne Duncan to create the ratings system, with public input, before the start of the 2015 school year.

White House officials said the Department of Education is engaging with the education sector to develop the ratings system and is working carefully to ensure the system doesn't favor certain institutions or create the wrong incentives.

It remains to be seen whether Obama’s plan will go far enough in addressing the multiple reasons college costs have risen so dramatically, a problem schools, students, and parents, as well as the government, are complicit in . . .
